EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white wood engraving, titled "RICHMOND: CLOTHING MARKET. The Old Clothes Market - A Scene in Richmond, VA" takes us back to the late 19th century in America. The scene depicts a bustling market in Richmond, Virginia, where men and women of all backgrounds gather to buy and sell clothing. The image captures the essence of life during this time period with its attention to detail. In the foreground, an African American boy stands barefoot on the sidewalk, surrounded by a diverse group of people engaged in lively conversations. Their worn-out clothes hint at the poverty that was prevalent during those times. As we delve deeper into this snapshot of history, we are reminded of the struggles faced by many individuals living in the South-Eastern region of America. This engraving serves as a poignant reminder that poverty knows no boundaries and affects people from all walks of life. Created by Granger NYC / The Granger Collection in 1870, this print not only showcases their artistic talent but also acts as a visual time capsule transporting us back to an era long gone. It is through images like these that we gain insight into our shared past and develop a greater appreciation for how far society has come since then.
